But at least it comes across better than "what do you want to be doing in 7 years" - which if you answered honestly might be - "I'll probably have moved on by then"
Then again, coming from some of the languages we were, variable names longer than one character were a sinful luxury. Vowels *and* consonants would be grounds to go straight to coder hell.
I cannot wait until I get old enough that I cannot hear the whine of CRT. I don't care what that means for my hearing, that noise alone is just... gross feeling in my head.
WHen you get old, the whine of the CRT (often) gets replaced by the whine of tinnitus. Learn to enjoy the CRT, you can turn it off.
Maybe even ditch the whole assembly and go with LED bulbs that replace the fluorescent tubes?
People argue about LED lighting and if 120 Hz is a headache inducer compared to 150 Hz. However, I'll take either over the 60Hz ballasts of old.
What ballasts ever drove lamps at 60hz? The AC is 60hz because it has a V+ peak and a V- peak, but light bulbs dont suck light back in when applied negative voltage, they put light out just like positive voltage so you end up with two pulses of light per AC cycle.
I could think of all sorts of uses for a light sucker.
Do we really even need a M/F identifier in most databases? It may be necessary for some medical ones, but do the medical databases, if they contain other biological information (example, bloodtype) assume that this is correct before doing a transfusion? (I'm not a doctor, Jim, perhaps one could confirm this) - My point though, is for most databases, this isn't a useful bit of information.

They're an Australian company, so its both! Let us celebrate. :(
For instance, corporate intraweb with heavy dependence on activeX.
Then fill up their searches with VirginAustralia.com reservations.
(addition to that, I've only ever got jobs through interviews that don't involve a HR component)
But at least it comes across better than "what do you want to be doing in 7 years" - which if you answered honestly might be - "I'll probably have moved on by then"
Where do HR get the load of tripe that they ask?
What do you call someone who keeps sharing a _wrong_ fact? Besides ArhcAngle that is.
Litmus test for intro/extro version. When stressed do you 'recharge' by being left alone or by hanging with your friends?
Neither? I don't think I do recharge, as such.
Always check the app does not have permission to send premium rate text messages before you install it
Does that show as a separate warning on the install 'things i can do' dialog?
Go back to watching A Christmas Carol, Ebenezer Scrooge.
A non US citizen can 'immunise' themselves from NSA scrutiny by appearing to be a US citizen?
Maybe. If they aren't current devs on the project, they might have given up on it, and become embittered and cynical.

Yup, or other flyback/transformer/coil issues generally solvable through liberal application of epoxy on the bit making the noise :)
I dunno, I think applying a conservative amount of epoxy would work better.
inline?

I take your 'slightly rounded corners' and raise you a 'series of straight lines'
http://theory.stanford.edu/~aiken/publications/papers/sigmod03.pdf seems a similar type of thing, and I'm not sure that's original either. (2003)
The principle of the 'phone home DRM' aside, who these days doesn't have their entire computer ecosystem connected to the web 24/7?
Has a copyright on silence. Use it at your peril. :)
keep your people under the yolk
Yolks are soft and squishy. Those attributes do not make an effective restraint. I'd much rather have a yoke.
You *want* to be yoked? Eggsplicitly?
"we're gathering data on everyone but we're not looking at it without a warrant."
That seems to be a new one to me. Have you heard of that one being used before?
I'm robbing a bank, but I propose leaving the money there in my account. Banks themselves seem to use that one.
No, don't stop, stop.
